Increased flux of free radicals in cells subjected to hyperthermia: detection by electron paramagnetic resonance spin trapping

Flanagan, Shawn W, Moseley, Pope L, Buettner, Garry R·1998·FEBS Letters

Abstract

It has been hypothesized that hyperthermia promotes oxygen‐centered free radical formation in cells; however, to date there is no direct evidence of this heat‐induced increase in oxygen free radical flux. Using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spin trapping, we sought direct evidence for free radical generation during hyperthermia in intact, functioning cells. Rat intestinal epithelial cell monolayers were exposed to 45°C for 20 min, after which the nitrone spin trap 5,5‐dimethyl‐1‐pyrroline N‐oxide (DMPO) was added. Compared to control cells at 37°C, heat‐exposed cells had increased free radical EPR signals, consistent with the formation of DMPO/⋅OH (a N=a H=14.9 G). These findings indicate that heat increases the flux of cellular free radicals and support the hypothesis that increased generation of oxygen‐centered free radicals and the resultant oxidative stress may mediate in part, heat‐induced cellular damage.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
